PS; if I left any out Alan will correct me.
I'm aware it's personal and no one else's business so without being intrusive, does anyone have an idea what the future may hold for Robert Hight or a general idea of why he hung up his helmet? If it was for health reasons that's all I need to know.It is a reunion at indy. In super comp also driving is Robert Heights daughter, and Torrence Sr.

Best of luck to Kalitta's boy. I'm sure Dad will teach him well.

Love Doug, but...... If Mitch is looking for advice running Super Comp, he will be talking to Shawn Langdon, not "Dad".
Alan
I think it's Shawn's car.

I dont think he had any major or any health issues at all. Just my opinion,prove me wrong lol.
Anyone know how old Mitch is? Doug's got to be 60-ish by now. Son Mitch could be in his late 20's or early 30's.

You are correct.
If the link doesn't work as "designed" - its just after the 1:40:28 mark:
@Jon Clark this:
Makes me think he's about 24 YO.
Third-generation Kalittas attend Frank Hawley’s Drag Racing School in Norwalk
Frank Hawley’s Drag Racing School recently hosted three generations of Kalitta family racers, including the sons of Doug Kalitta and the late Scott Kalitta.
Indeed.
I completely forgot about Shawn's SC involvement.BaldyLochs

Of course, Mitchell has quietly been around the cars and planes quite a bit. He’s assisted on his Dad’s pit crew. I believe he did some experimental laps in a Junior Dragster quite a number of years ago.
Both he and his sister were; and very much still are very big into Soccer. After playing all through college at U of M, Mitch’s sister is a Pro Soccer Player presently in her rookie year with the Louisville Women’s team. All 3 Kalitta boys are Pilots; or studying to be, as you’d expect.
Racing is big business; but it’s safe to assume that if any of those kids want to compete seriously…. They will be, at some point. There doesn’t seem to be any pressure or expectations put on them though …. Which is actually very admirable. Scott’s son now works for his Grandfather’s company in corporate.
Between the planes and the car racing - it’s a good bet their family legacy will roll on for many years to come
